>>Better yet, take a deep breath, go for a walk, and repeat to yourself "It's not a race. I'm still a good person even if someone else posted the same answer a minute before me. I'm a beautiful and delicate snowflake."

I think your totally missing his point. I don't think the original poster was referring to a race to be the first reply to a question at all. Of course it doesn't matter in the over all scheme whether two people post the same reply to a question. But if we look at it like that, what does matter? Everyone dies after all. But thats ranging rather farther afield then I had meant to go, so back to the original point. The point is that a system like he was proposing would simply help increase the signal to noise ration, which is admittedly already very good, but improvements are always good.
